00:00I think it's very, very important. Right now we are talking about a situation about the world order.
00:06Respect for territorial integrity, respect for international law.
00:12That's what should unite all of the Western countries with a well-going democracy, and also the European Union.
00:21We have been so happy and glad, and I stated today, we are thankful for the support from all our allies,
00:27all the countries of the European Union, for stating and constantly saying,
00:33we need to respect the world order. International law is not a game.
00:39And if we don't do that, of course alliances will fall, and that will be very bad in the way the world is developing now.
00:48We have been a close and loyal ally to the United States, to NATO, through many, many, many years.
00:54We can do lots more in that framework. We are willing to cooperate much more, but of course in mutual respect.
01:02And if we cannot see that, it will be very difficult to have a good and reliable partnership.
